Needed hekp deciding on my mom phone📱📱📱

My mom designs 'cheong Sam' (Chinese traditional gowns), she uses her phone camera to take pictures of my sister in them to promote the dresses. And she needs a new phone with good cameras, she narrowed down to 3 phones. What do you guys think which should she get?

It won't matter that much which one you pick when it comes to pictures of dresses. All three will do a good job with those.

Here is a site where you can compare all three of them in three different scenarios:

I would personally pick the S23 out of those phones. I think it has the slightly better camera (especailly in low light) and from what I've seen its secondary cameras (ultrawide and telephoto) are better as well compared to the other two. I also prefer Samsung's software over the other two, and support wise it's hard to beat Samsung. You get really long support and Samsung have been really good with releasing updates.

I recommend an iPhone.  GUARENTEED six years of updates, including security updates, way, way, way more advanced software, GPS-based calling automatically available when you lose cell service, better battery runtime, and software optimization.  Safari is way better than google chrome, and Apple's iOS system has built-in tracking protection that helped "meta", facebook company lose billions in advertising revenue because they couldn't track anyone with their facebook app on apple devices.

 

iPhone is superior in every way to ANY android device.  Google will catch up, some year, but they aren't even 20% of the way to competing with Apple's software, or six years of support.

My mom preferred android sorry, she used my dad a iPhone X for 3 years she hated it till now. In her words " a really boring phone".

Sony us decent.  It has heavy cpu throttling, so not as many screen refreshes due to throttling, but wii games are set to 30 fps, so maybe that is enjoyable enough?

 

Sony has instructioms for how to unlock the bootloader, which should make such a "phone" / pocket computer open for possibilities.

 

look into LineageOS and other custom software, and please consider supporting a brand that encourages and allows an unlocked boot loader.  I guess a "stock" samsung might be boring too.
